Turning 18

[deloriagod]

On the cigarette discussion, what is the logic in breathing smoke? Logically, the body is made to breath fresh air. When I turned 18 though, I didn't do anything special, not even drink(well, for drinking, when I turned the legal drinking age of 19 in my province).

 

 

 

Maybe there is no logic behind it but we've been smoking things for ages. There was a marijuana stash found well preserved in an ancient tomb that was presumed to be over 2700 years old.

And look where that got the guy. He's dead!

[Star_Fox]

I bought my first porno :thumbsup: (and no it didn't involve vikings).

 

 

 

On a more serious note, I didn't do much. I woke up looked at the clock which said 3 AM, said , said a few words. then went back asleep.

 

 

 

 

 

whats with you people and porn? :lol: i think having the privilege to become a majority is enough for me.

And? He could've been buried with the stuff, and died of old age. Logic fail.

I was kidding. :|

 

Of course he's dead after 2,700 years.

Kinda hard to tell, I don't pick up sarcasm, and this board's gone to crap lately.

[woopidoo2]

I will call the nearest driving instructor and arrange driving lessons as soon as I turn 18. :thumbup:

 

 

 

I might even do that some days before my birthday, I cant wait to drive my parents' cars :)

 

(and my own, once I get a decent job to pay for the car/gas/taxes etc)

[transcript80]

Where I live, turning 18 unlocks driving.

 

 

 

Alcohol is allowed from 16 (not liquor, that's for 18+), as is tobacco.

 

 

 

Turning 18 wasn't special to me. Didn't get a driver's licence until I was 19 and a half years old. I don't smoke, and alcohol started when I was 16, because that's when I started going out. Before that, I didn't feel like going out, and I wasn't interested in drinking. Didn't start it because I could, but because I wanted to.

 

 

 

On a side note, 18-year old people are considered adults, but in many cases they aren't. Here, most 18-year old kids haven't even finished school, have no (full time) jobs (obviously), but still they are allowed to vote (most of them are not politically aware, making them a prey for opportunistic politicians) and drive cars...Odd, really......

Anyway, I'm probably gonna have some kind of party when I turn 18. I don't smoke, but at least I'll probably have a drivers license before.

[Agunimon979]

As soon as I turn 18 I'm gonna go buy some fine cigars 8-)

 

can only get cigarettes at school... >=/

[Faux]

4 months and being 19 here is wayyyyyyyy better than turning 18.

 

 

 

too bad for our southern neighbours who have to wait til they're 21

[Rahila]

So i turn 18 in about 5 days...that leaves me:

 

-5 days till i can go to clubs

 

-5 Days till i can legally smoke tobacco

 

-5 days till i can vote

 

-5 days till i can buy porn

 

-5 days till i can (legally) have sex

 

-5 days left that i can get arrested without getting f'd in the A #-o

 

 

 

hmmm sweeeeet 8-)

[dusqi]

P.S. By the time I turn 18, Tip.it will be long gone.

 

 

 

I wouldn't be so sure... I was 15 when I first started browsing tip.it... am now 23.

 

 

 

 

 

-5 days left that i can get arrested without getting f'd in the A #-o

 

 

 

But the good news is that when you're 18, you can get f'ed in the A legally.. :P

[ElkNight]

Few more years for me. Don't think i'll make a big deal out of it.

[Toxic388]

I'm 20 but my friend is turning 18 on Friday. They are dragging me to a local nasty strip club. :?

[mcneilp]

I bought my first packet of fully legal cigarettes and some bottles of Miller. Best of it was that the guy behind the counter didn't even ask for my I.D.

Turning 18 this sunday ^_^

 

 

 

Having awesome party on the 13th, I excited

[jasignhagj]

It's kind of annoying to have people asking me to buy them cigarettes or whatnot now. They can get them themselves if they had a damn clue considering I started smoking underage and had no problem getting cigarettes.

 

Same here with alcohol. It's not that I don't mind buying 17 year olds alcohol, it's just if I got caught, kiss good-bye to any jobs in the public sector. Most shops accept their college ID too, and you can get them at 16. :roll:

 

 

 

Yeah. I guess it's not even the getting caught part that bothers me, it's that they'll call me up and ask me to go get them some during school or whatnot. I mean if we were hanging out and we stopped by a gas station then I'd have nothing against buying them a pack (as long as they've got money) but I'm not going to go out of my way to buy people cigarettes.

 

 

 

 

 

It's like what happens when you feed wild animals, they do not appreciate the priveledge and try to abuse it as much as possible. My younger brother(17) is a huge drinker, and I turn 19 in a week(legal age in Canada). I'm sure looking forward to it. :evil:

 

 

 

Move to manitoba you can drink when your 12 and drive when your 10. i joke, but its 18 (take that Saskatchewan) . I swear most of our tourism is 20 year olds coming up from the states

[GGunitfan10]

well i turn 18 in 2 weeks...and i don't smoke cigs, but i do smoke cigars, hookah, etc and drink alcohol.

 

 

 

tbh 18 year olds should be allowed to drink in the U.S...After all we can go to iraq and [bleep] die...yet we cant drink...

 

 

 

but the way i see it being 18 wont be that big of a deal, other than the fact that i only have 2 weeks left to get arrested for something and not get f'd in the A...

 

But your brain cells(for males) are not done devoping yet at 18. Sometimes it takes until like 20 or something? Idk our history teacher gave us a lecture on this but I wasn't listening lol

I thought you get that right when you are 16 or maybe thats only where I live.

[Echocut]

Happy Birthday? :?

 

 

 

I didn't do too much on my 18 b-day, I thought it was just another day being older than yesterday.

[Quoi_Tu]

The day I turned 18 I decided to drive double the speed limit everywhere. Good thing I didn't go on the highway.

Considering there are immensely stupid people at all age spectrums, I don't see how that's true or has any relevance. There are 16-18 year olds smarter than I or you will ever be, and there are those who still act like a kindergardener throwing tantrums and hitting people when he/she doesn't get something.

[Obtaurian]

The day I turned 18, I opened up a bank account, got a job, and got my license. I have yet to buy a lotto ticket, cigar, Hustler, or gun.

 

 

 

One of these days...

[Serpent Eye]

Turning eighteen was actually pretty boring... I felt like a kid still.

 

 

 

Well, I still feel like a kid, so that's beside the point. :

 

 

 

Edit: I did go and buy a pack of cloves, though. The guy at the shop stared at me like I was an alien, because I said it was like a "right of passage." I guess that makes me crazy... I still have that pack of cloves somewhere. (Life > smoking.)
